A thanks to skeletonofchaos for all the help.

 

@AnthonyPray you got your "API" link messed up.
It's called a source, not a API.

 

You need an off-site download link. Non-forum members can't download on-forum links.
Also, your post needs a lot of cleaning up and clarifying per the submission guidelines.

 

and now?

 

Nope, it's still very hard to understand, and your link redirects to a google search for "referral links."

 

dont know what was up with the link. fixnow

sorry can you explan?

 

actually i should have voted other. i really want to see a smoke arrow. if you don't mine can i send you some decompild code for the smoke. i got it from the jump smoke plugin. a bit of math but i think you should just be able to link it to the arrow. (you may need to do some stuff to it cus i haven't edited it at all.)

here is the file with the recompiled code and the plugin you can also get it from his post if you just type in smoke. in the search bar.

[Link removed]

 

I hope you asked for permission first...

 

And Now>>>///???

 

why i'm just taking a look at it... some interesting math though. useful if you want to base your plugin off of the same tricks.

 

You're sharing it, though, which is not allowed unless you have permission.
Link removed.

Firstly, don't report my post because you don't like what I'm saying.
Secondly, you need to improve the quality of the language in your post.
For example:
Command: /oa Light

• Description: The block the arrow lands in will be set

That does not provide an accurate description of what the command does. I can assume from the command it makes the block's light level change, but still the description needs improving.

This is the same for most of your descriptions.

Erm, I'm looking at your plugin here, and there's only a ManiFest file...

Where's the rest of your plugin?

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

im confused in the public void addSphere(Location loc, int radius)
on line 43 this.blocks.add() where is "this" defined? public class Smoke extends Schedulable
but public abstract class Schedulable
/* */ implements Runnable

what is Object "this"

 

if i has to take a guess i would say that this refers to the block that your putting the smoke in. on line 29 it refers to this as a loc for location.

 

Mr. High horse,

Firstly if you have suggestions for a noob you should help them out not just assume eavery one kows what you are talking about, you where a noob once too. I am very new to the world of java but people who act that way make me not want to keep leaning. I looked over the Plugin Release/Submission Guidelines and fallowed to the best of my knowledge.​

*EDIT* Rant sorry.​

do not know , I put up new copy.

I have fixed the plugin and description hows it look now?

 

[Permissions]

• PermissionsEx
  • - com.isitbroken.oddarrow.permission

You might want to create nodes for each type of arrow, like oddarrow.rapidfire. The way you have it set up makes no sense. Permissions nodes are supposed to start with your plugin name, and get more specific with each period. It isn't supposed to be your package or class.

​

It's fine if you disagree with a Moderator, but you probably shouldn't talk to them like that.
*EDIT* And put up this link instead of the one you did, this one is the direct link that it leads to. https://dl.dropbox.com/s/cs430br5eqwvjpz/OddArrow.jar?dl=1

​

What I said was simple, "your post does not make that much sense."

Much, much better. Thank you.

 

It was just a test I know.
My first Working on:

• More Permissions!

How do i fix the poll? there is a spelling problem
or how do I remove it?

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

First off the plugin looks nice, but clean up the source code! It's a bloody mess! There is no way I'd trust this plugin on my server simply because the source is incomprehensible.

 

Can you provide pointers or some examples.
I tried renaming all the functions to make more seance but as I have worked very little java I know its a mess.

 

Looking through the source it seems terribly inefficient... It checks for all entities in the world for arrows, so on a busy server it may have to go through 150+ mobs to find one arrow. Also there is no collision with entity event so it can't detect when it hits a mob. In addition to giving players unlimited arrows as of the moment...

 

Just finished major rewright of code. thanks skeletonofchaos,

this was by designee, not for pvp or pve.

yeah i was going to have it controlled by Permission.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

dinamite arrow for hardcore pvp

This is cool love you!

good plugin but my game takes ages from the arrow being shot to doing what its meant to do. I dont know whether thats just my game or the plugin and I have no idea how to change it either so please look it over

 

Are you running +992 or you still running the Recommended Build: 953 I would suggest getting the build 992 or higher.
If you are running +992 let me know and all look into it.

 

I believe its the reccomended build ill try out the other one and see if it works

Ok they all seem to work how they should except /boom doesn't blow up the remote arrows. But I didn't really intend to use this much anyway so thanks for the help! if you do have any idea about the remote arrows it would help.

oh actually after restarting the server a couple of times it works now thanks! this is a great plugin

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Try pulling a fresh build. Just added Bridges.

 

Very fun so far, but CreeperHeal by Nitnelave (http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/22476/) does not seem to be able to detect the explosions from your Rapid Fire arrows; I like the power behind the plug in, but, after only twenty minutes of play, the area surrounding our city is starting to remind me of the Moon. Would be great if these two plugins could be made compatible.

 

i would like to see arrows that makes a chest full of goodies! ex: diamond, iron, ores (not diamond ore), and stuff that dungeons make.

 

fix link plz looks awesome!

 

noo why did you have to bump this, i got so excited thinking it was recently updated
